Barkley would be the talk of the football world if he played for West Brom? Barkley has played fewer games, and has only played for one club, no evidence he can make a move, or that he would have got first team chances if not for the local lad angle.
Go check your calculator and come back to me brains Barkley ****s all over him in terms of ability, goals and assists. The Ox is massively overrated which is why Arsenal aren't arsed about him ****ing off.
Senior appearances Barkley: 150 (Everton) + 17 (loans) + 22 (England) = 189 Ox: 36 (Southampton) + 129 (Arsenal) + 27 (England) = 192 Ox has attracted interest from CL clubs like Chelsea and LFC, Barkley has **** all interest
I'd only looked at domestic games, so I win Glad you wasted 5 mins on completely inane stats though mate
I'll take your word for it Tobes, as all I saw was TV highlights. I just remember being really excited @ WC year.
He improved as an all round player last season under Koeman imo mate. I think it's sad for both parties that he's chosen to move on at this point.
They're both decent players, everyone just wants that crazy contract now though. Look at Rose ffs, as arrogant and horrible that was to read this morning - he's just saying what all these tossers are thinking nowadays Edit: and make no mistake, if that contract runs to zero, slap an extra 1/3 on those wages on the new contract with the new club £££££
Thing is, if the clubs deal with players as assets, which they all absolutely do, wtf else do they expect? I applaud Rose for simply saying it as it is.....with no BS. Now sign him up JK
Trump that Djimi won the CL Ftr I would much rather have Ross than ox TBH hoping we put a bid in and get him I know it practically impossible but...
Coutinho, IF he doesn't go this summer (still don't trust FSG) he's definitely gone next summer -if he wants- and probably for less that Barca's last offer. Just hope it's to PSG and not barca.
He's on £65k/week, how much more does he think he is worth? If he means he wants to push it closer to £80k/week then okay, but who's getting more than that that at LB?
If that was the case, could we not agree a deal with psg where they can have him next season and we could loan a couple of their players for now with maybe buying them?
PSG won't need him and Barca's decline will make them less attractive and more #desperate Plus being a star at the World Cup will push up his value
Yeah but that's City, and they've just sorted themselves for fullbacks. You can't use them to set the market rate when the market is so small that there's no further demand. If he's turning down offers from City, Chelsea, Man Utd then okay he can ask for a pay rise, but just because they're #desperate enough to pay those wages doesn't mean he can get it at his current club
VvD is on 65k... cmon astro lingard is on 100k. Utd set the bar for every bang average english player. Barkely turned that down ffa
Lfc have a series of first team players on less than 100k. Mane in 90k springs to mind Matip 70k Mingolet i think is about 70k too. Its odd how these were high wages a short time ago but if utd insist on paying waynes 300k and jessies 100k...(funny how utd frist names are also insulting)
